About
Emad Yassa’s life work reflects a clear evolution from healing individuals to uplifting communities. After decades as a physical therapist and clinic owner, Emad redirected his focus toward addressing the root causes of poverty through economic opportunity and faith-driven service. As the founder of Touch of Love International, Emad leads initiatives that provide micro-loans to entrepreneurs in underprivileged regions around the world. These loans help individuals start small businesses, support their families, and build long-term independence. Emad believes sustainable change happens when people are empowered rather than assisted temporarily. Today, Emad devotes his time fully to TOLI’s mission, overseeing programs, developing partnerships, and traveling internationally to support local leaders. His work is grounded in humility, stewardship, and a deep belief in the transformative power of opportunity.
